Hello - I see references to captcha functionality in the KB, but it's not on my discussion/comment forms (nor is it on this form).

Is there a way to turn it on? What am I missing?

Thanks!
Nick

    I think this is a case in point...

    Yeah. We tweaked it to improve the algorithm and move the captcha to a
    followup page, if a comment looks like spam. However it appears that
    we get much more spam attempts than anticipated.

    Gotcha,

    Do you have plans to re-instate it, or give the option to do so? I'd
    rather be moderately inconvenient and spam free. Otherwise I may make
    all the forms private by default, which is not so ideal.

    Thanks!

    Haha… ya. As I mark over 100 comments as spam in less than 2 hours…
